Power to the government and the public: Qian engaged in business in ancient times

Chapter 8 It's time to go back to town
"This..." Yin Yue hesitated.

She knew that Uncle Wengan's family, except the honest man Wenquanfu, his wife and daughter were all snobbish and greedy for money. If he got involved with Agan because of this matter, he was afraid that he would cause a big disaster for Agan who passed the imperial examination.

What's more, A-gan is stepping on the bottom line of the law to marry a wife. I'm afraid it will displease the new emperor and affect his future. What should I do?
"Actually, I have a better way here, that is, I will compete fairly with you, and whoever wins Mr. Wen's heart will marry him!"

Liu Jing didn't expect that Yin Yue showed hesitation when she was just trying to test it out. It seemed that she didn't mind.

As long as you mind, she can drive away this unsightly woman.

"Fair competition?" Yin Yue's eyes lit up, and she said excitedly, "Miss Liu's method is very good, so what about today's marriage?"

Liu Jing saw that she agreed, and regarding today's farce-like wedding banquet: "It's cancelled."

Wen Qian, who was being pulled tightly by Mrs. Wen to persuade him to make peace, did not expect that the two girls had reached an agreement in this way. Have you asked her about this party?
"Nonsense, marriage is a big deal, how can it be a joke? If it gets out, how can my Wen family gain a foothold in the world?" Seeing that the time was almost up, old lady Wen scolded.

"..." Wen Qian was silent, ginger was still hot.

"Grandma Wen, don't worry, my Liu family will definitely explain the reason to outsiders about the divorce." Liu Jing looked at the old lady Wen who came out to disturb the situation, and quickly responded respectfully.

"That's right, Mrs. Wen. Although E-gan can marry me and Ms. Liu if he chooses two houses, this will affect A-gan's reputation to some extent. Now it's safe for me and Ms. Liu to take a step back. You should not use the grace of saving your life to threaten A-gan to marry a wife."

There was a faint hint of joy on Yin Yue's lips, and she turned around and said to the guests with a smile: "Today, Miss Liu and I made a bet, whoever wins Ah Gan's heart will be his wife, and whoever will be his wife?" Please be a witness."

Liu Jing looked at Yin Yue who was so eloquent, her eyes drooped slightly.

For some reason, there was a burst of crisis in my heart...

"Okay, Miss Yin is indeed a lady from Xuancheng, she speaks with reason. All the guests sitting here are witnesses!"

Mrs. Wen narrowed her eyes and looked at everyone with a smile while agreeing: "Today's marriage is not because the Wen family will not marry, but because the marriage between the two girls and the Wen family has not yet arrived, but the banquet is prepared. Alright, I'll just give everyone a reward for their futile work, and you don't have to follow the ceremony."

After listening to Mrs. Wen's words, everyone looked at Yin Yue with admiration and admiration.

When looking at Miss Liu's family, it was with scrutiny and comparison.

Wen Qian witnessed the whole process, and really wanted to ask: Are you all blind?
This Yin girl is obviously here to disrupt the situation, but the Liu family girl is the innocent person!
The villagers looked at him with scrutiny, which made Liu An, a farmer, a little embarrassed.

Pointing at Wen Qian, he asked, "You also let the two girls mess around?"

After hearing this, Wen Qian's eyes flickered slightly, and she said in a low voice, "Sorry, I respect Miss Liu's opinion."

"Hmph!" Liu An shook his sleeves angrily, and took his sister's hand distressedly: "Ah Jing, let's go!"

Liu Jing, who was looking at Yin Yue with jealousy in her eyes, was caught off guard by her elder brother's actions: "No, elder brother, I still have something to say..."

"Ah Jing, stop talking. I know what you said just now was for the sake of the Liu family's face, but this Wen family is clearly bullying others. They don't want to marry, and we don't want to marry!"

After saying that, Liu An ignored his sister's wishes, grabbed Liu Jing's arm, and led the Liu family to leave Wen's house angrily.

Wen Qian watched Liu's family leave with cold eyes, but what she thought was: this is good, it's much better than the plan of marrying Miss Liu and letting her stay alone in the vacant house.

Yin Yue has been paying attention to Liu Jing's movements, and saw that she was taken away by the Liu family.

Then he strode up to Wen Qian, and said generously, "Agan, I said that I would compete fairly with Miss Liu's family. Since she is gone, I can't stay any longer. Farewell!"

Yin Yue bowed to everyone present, and walked swiftly and gracefully.

The corner of Wen Qian's mouth twitched: "..."

Yin Yue left in such a hurry, maybe she was worried that I would settle accounts with her?

It is certain that she came to destroy the original owner's marriage to Miss Liu.

If it weren't for the crowds now, she would have chased after her immediately and praised her: Miss Yin Yue's coquettish operation has almost solved her big trouble of getting a wife!

I have to say, Wen Qian is telling the truth.

"Miss, wait for me, Mr. Wen didn't come after me!"

When Feng Cai came out of Wen's house, she saw that Yin Yue had already sat in the sedan chair, and ordered the strong man who carried the sedan chair to leave quickly.

There is no such thing as a model lady in front of the Wen family, who is generous, delicate and deceitful.

"Agan, you're tired, go down and rest!" Mrs. Wen pushed away Wen Qian with her hand, her old face was full of concern.

Wen Qian put away her wandering thoughts, and shook her head at Mrs. Wen: "Grandma, you are the hardest one today, leave the rest to us!"

After finishing speaking, he told Wen Kun, who was only watching the excitement, "Ah Kun, help grandma into the house to rest."

"Okay, big brother." Wen Kun immediately supported his grandma.

At this time, Jiang stood up: "Agan, you can help the clan elders to rest in the house!"

Old Mrs. Wen met Jiang's eyes, and agreed: "Agan, the clan elder is getting old, so don't hurry up! Your mother can take care of the rest."

"..." Come on, the original owner is enjoying his life at home, Wen Qian resigned to his fate and helped the old man of the Wen family into the house to rest.

After entering the room, old lady Wen ordered Wen Kun to go to the kitchen to bring food.

The four of them sat in the main room and ate and chatted, mainly because Mrs. Wen and the elders of the Wen family were talking, and Wen Kun joined in their support.

Wen Qian just lowered her head to eat. She had been hungry all morning, and she could vaguely hear the noise of the guests in the courtyard.

The people eating outside didn't stay for long, so they hurriedly took their share of food and left.

Because there were piles of black clouds pressing down on the sky, the clouds accumulated more and more, the whole sky became dark, and the wind also picked up.

Come to think of it, a storm is coming.

Wen Qian's marriage today came to a hasty end in the midst of thunder and lightning, wind and rain.

As soon as the rain fell, it rained heavily for three consecutive days.

Wen Qian walked out of the house, looked at the clear sky that was turning white, and looked to the south.

Mrs. Jiang came in from outside carrying a basket of vegetables, while Wen Kun behind her carried a large bundle of firewood into the woodshed.

Immediately afterwards, two sisters, Wen Yu and Wen Wen, came back with two fish.

Seeing Wen Qian, Mrs. Jiang had a concerned smile on her face: "Agan, are you hungry? There are steamed buns in the kitchen, you fill your stomach first, and cook later."

"I see, I'm not hungry yet." Wen Qian shook her head, unexpectedly they all got up so early.

"Brother, mother is worried that you will go back to town today. Before dawn, she asked my elder sister and me to go to the east side of the big river to watch. If anyone is fishing, I will buy two and cook them for you!"

Speaking of gentleness, he handed the fish in his hand to Wen Qian, raised his chin, and showed a charming appearance asking for credit.

"Thank you, Ah Rou." Wen Qian looked at the fish, and then at the fish that Wen Yu was holding, which weighed about three catties in total.

She felt Jiang's intention.

Wen Qian pondered for a while, and said, "Next time I come back, I will bring you pastries."

Wen Rou was startled, and dared not say anything: "Brother, are you serious?"

"Yeah." Wen Qian nodded, she was not the original owner, and she didn't want to follow the original owner's example and be hostile to Jiang's stepmother.

"Okay, Ah Rou, let's kill the fish and cook." Wen Yu couldn't guess the truth of what the elder brother said, so he pushed the stunned younger sister, signaling her not to have too much hope.

This elder brother has always been too indifferent to them, and it was only the younger brother who could talk to him. Now he can respond to them, which is really pleasant and uncertain at the same time.

"..." Wen Qian was silent.

Is this treating me like a fool?But considering the appetite of the original owner, she had nothing to say.

After breakfast.

Wen Qian sat under the eaves, thinking about how to make a lot of money next.

Seeing Wen Kun came to him with a package on his back: "Brother, why haven't you packed your things yet, we should go back to town."
